Weston has decided to become a vegetarian.
So now I’m cooking for a vegan, a vegetarian, and a couple of meat eaters.
NO PROBLEM.

By the way, this is what the other pizzas looked like:
The vegan girlfriend wasn’t here last night, so I was spared further culinary gymnastics.

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....

You are not a short order cook. You have plenty to do without trying to cook all those different meals. As far as the girlfriend goes, if she won’t eat what you make, she can bring her own food from home.

I’ll take two of each of those pizzas! They look scrumptious! Don’t worry, by the time barbeque season rolls around, he’ll be ready for a burger – LOL!
By the way, I made my 2nd Homemade Hamburger Helper using your recipe the other night. I made the lasagna version, and like the Cheeseburger macaroni one, they loved it! I switch out the beef for ground turkey breast, they didn’t care. No leftovers! Thank you so much for you wonderful recipes.

When I swore off red meat for about 4 years, I was lucky enough to have a loving husband that would made 2 versions of everything – beef tacos for him / chicken for me. Spaghetti sauce w/ hamburger for him / marinara for me. I don’t know how he survived it. Going to a friend’s house and being served a steak, I’d eat it to not cause any upset. I went back to eating red meat after a while. It was easier for everyone.

And to save yourself some time (because you really aren’t a short order cook) — my mom was no chef, so she bought me my own vegetarian cookbook when I deviated from the rest of the family at age 13. These days you don’t even have to buy a book:

A vegan eats some milk, cheese and eggs I think..?
I worked for a doctor who was a true vegetarian….and he would never eat cheese, or milk products much less meat…all his food milk sources were soy based..(veggie)..yuk…always veggie this and veggie that, of course he had the money to buy a lot of imported varieties in the winter….The breads he ate where chewy, like bricks…ewwwww..It would drive me crazy when we had a Christmas dinner at work…he would ask all kinds of questions about what was in our food that we made…I quit trying to fix anything that he would eat..and decided to let him just bring what he wanted to eat by himself…LOL…I know the wonderful aroma of the foods others brought would just about starved him to death…you know how those dinners are …everyone bringing their own best,favorite and delishious recipe..LOL

I was a vegetarian for several years in my later teens and early 20′s.
I did my own cooking and shopping because my family didn’t have any idea of how to make something vegetarian. I’m sure they thought I would get some form of horrible vitamin deficiency and die but I survived and I’ve been a happy omninivore for many many years now, lol

We have been gravitating towards less meat without even intending to, maybe one out of every 15 or so meals is non-vegetarian these days, if that. It’s really easy if you cook every day from scratch, like to experiment with different cuisines (we eat a lot of Indian and Thai dishes in addition to chowders, pasta dishes, casseroles, etc.) and refuse to eat cheap meat that lived unhappy lives on corporate farms. I happen to like tofu but my husband hates it, so we never eat that or any fake soy foods (blegh). We get enough protein from a balanced, varied diet.
Breakfast is usually yogurt or sheepsmilk and müsli, lunch is the big meal where vegetables play the big starring role, and dinner is often a slice of homemade bread and a slice of organic cheese on top, or leftovers, or a soup or salad of some kind.
It’s really satisfying.

I felt really good on a veggie diet, and hope he enjoys it:)

I knew it was something like that….the doctor called himself a vegetarian….but he was a vegan….aha!
I think vegan is a relative new term also I think?
At any rate…he would get more colds than any of us at the office…LOL

My husband and I are vegatarians in the summer…well, except when the big red tomatoes are ripe and then bring on the bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwichs…
as long as the garden is good we do without a lot of meat in the summer….LOL

Just fix a “normal” meal and tell ‘em that: “If ya’ don’t like it, there’s the stove, refrigerator and pots and pans. . . . . FIX Y’R OWN MEAL!!!”
I’ll GAURANTEE that that’ll END that nonsense.

I agree with Julia, when omnis, vegetarian, and vegans eat together let the vegetarians eat the vegan food, then there are only two things to worry about. It’s pretty simple to do both, use the same base and just throw meat into only half the stuff; if you need more protein, use tofu.

Lacto vegetarians will include dairy products – cheese, milk, yogurt etc.
Vegetarians will not eat any meat – this includes fish, sea food, or any meat or fowl.
I was lacto vegetarian for awhile couldn’t give up the cheese and yogurt!!!
But my husband weaned me back because of the fish and seafood!!
You can do a lot of recipes vegetarian and then just add meat to them especially stir fries, omelets, and rice dishes… Good luck with the multi course meals!!
